Weird, because I remember back when Jack Dorsey used to run it no one was complaining, even though he’s also a billionaire.
Lol. All the cable news is corporate owned and every large platform is controlled by a billionaire.
Who do you think has been controlling your information feeds all along?
Television? Newspapers? Hell, even the town crier only told you what his masters wanted you to hear.
What were the Meta social media platforms, then?
Just curious which news stories X is suppressing.
And if you must post Twitter shit, crop out everything but the content.
Serious information should also not be spread through memes. Lemmy homes are always filled with shitposts, try to upvote more serious content and less memes.
Ehh, not a real issue. Some ppl just dont care ab serious posts and just scroll to unwind.
As there's plenty of alternatives, I disagree that the platforms are the problem. Most people prefer to remain in their respective bubbles.
Goated youtuber from what ive seen. So far only watched his video about eastern europe but it was really good.
Based, and truth bombed
I fucking hate living in a time where a breakthrough in media was achieved recently.
It always ends in tears. A lot of tears.
Lots of people are migrating over to an alternative site but they're doing it after the election, having normalized fascism up until that point by ignoring all the calls to leave it for the previous two years. Fucking thanks a lot, folks
This is not the world government Star Trek promised me.
We will get there I promise. Unfortunately it's going to be painful though. The wheat still has the be separated from the chaff. As a species our old habits need to die. Elon represents those old habits of everything bad in humanity.
You had me in the first part!
You mean the part about it being painful? Yeah same.
This is not what you want to hear, but even in Star Trek Earth had to go through a third world war, and in the devastation it was really the Vulcans who had to step in and basically played nanny for a generation after they were like "oh fuck no those rednecks have a warp drive?"
I for one welcome our new alien overlords. Please God can they come sooner?
I don't think a "Putin link" is necessary to build a justification.
It's enough that Musk is a bilionaire controlling the platform and intefering in it: that thing is not a fair platform of communication, it's algorithimically shaped to make it a Propaganda vehicle and there's no point in frequenting a place whose function is to make you think and do what others want you to think and do.
This desperate attempt at a finding a "Russia excuse" is a massive Americanism reminiscent of McCarthism and generally boils doing directly or indirectly a self-serving excuse from politicians from "moderate" parties who have spent the last 2 or 3 decades serving interests other than those of their voters and who now are reaping the natural results of that, and they want to blame anybody else but themselves. When the rationale "by an amazing coincidence" entirelly absolves the people putting it forward and doesn't come with strong proof, it's bullshit until further evidence for it emerges. We saw a lot of that shit parroted by Democrat tribalists here in Lemmy right after their loss in the Presidential Elections in the US - the fault was from everybody but they themselves.
I don't really know how much Russia interferes with Twitter or with the various elections the West (I'm pretty sure they at least try, but there are so many interested in making it seem huge and shifting all the blame to it, that what we common humans with no access to intelligence brefings hear about it is too thick with propaganda to be trusted), but then again the same goes for Israel and other countries and even individuals with enough means to pay for it (or ownership of media vehicles) who have an interest in shaping the outcomes, especially multi-millionaires and billionares - remember the massive role of Cambridge Analitica in Brexit, and they were paid not by Russia but by wealthy Americans.
What I'm saying is that ultimatelly it's the being a Propaganda outlet that matters and the "whose propaganda" is irrelevant: none of those actors are doing their manipulative "opinion forming" for my best interests and their chosing to use such techniques tells me that they see other human beings as nothing more than puppets on their strings, so they're not the kind of people one can trust in any way form or shape.
Personally I droped Twitter following the whole Brexit thing and well before Musk, though the latter did made me actually delete my account rather than just leave it there unused.
Yeah, to US libs it's always Putin and never the thousands of radical fascist talk show hosts on AM radio or the Salem Media Group beaming out of NYC. That's because liberals voted for the 1996 Telecommunications Act that gave corporations the power to buy up all the media outlets and push that shit. When you point that out, they try to play the "marketplace of ideas" card...that liberal/leftist shows would be there instead if they made money. They just dont know who they're dealing with, and they never learn.
I think their double standard on media manipulation is derived from them being absolutelly fine with some people mass-manipulating others but not with other people doing it, which if you think about it is another aspect of the same kind of take that Trumpist muppets have: such an such should be done to "them", but when it's being done to "us" it shouldn't happen.
People whose thinking is based on Principles and who at least try to not be tribalist, tend conclude that it's the act itself - the manipulation - that is the morally and ethically wrong thing quite independently of who are the perpetrators or the victims.
The funny thing specifically with US libs is that it's exactly the turning of their media into Propaganda Outlets, which they themselves supported and used, that sewed the fields for the harvest that Trump is harvesting: it destroyed people's confidence in the traditional media opening the path for manipulation via social media and for the kind of populism that Trump uses - "strong man" saying whatever he thinks people want to hear quite independently of it being true or not, in a very assured way and using everyday language (even rufian language) which massivelly contrasts with the style of deceit prefered by liberals.
Liberals: We want to obsess over Putin's fascism!
Leftists: We have fascism at home!
Liberals: Putin brought fascism to our homes?
Leftists: Jesus Fuckin' Christ...
Q: What's the difference between Lemmy MAGAs and Lemmy Leftists?
A: Nothing! All they ever post is fantasies about "liberal tears".
We have fascism at home!
nor should they be allowed to run for government office.
There should be a petition to vote for banning Twitter in the EU. It's time we take a step against US Oligarchs and their election interference
Summary of what may have happened: Trump is a Russian asset working for Putin (see American Kompromat by journalist Craig Unger or Active Measures documentary with Hillary Clinton). Trump stole election software in 2020 (sources below).
Starlink, Elon's satellite company was installed in voting machines across the country and may have interfered with vote tabulation. In September, Politco had an investigation finding Russian malware on a state voter registration database. Also, there were malicious fake texts and fake DNC organizations likely fishing voter info connected to Elon who is connected to Russia. Elon and Trump are working together. Elon had results of election on an app 4 hours before official counts had it.
They will release more info admitting their fraud because they are a Russian asset trying to start a civil war here. This is speculation but he has refused to write an ethics statement for transition of power saying he will transition peacefully. JD Vance has also told the EU that unless they allow X unfettered access to the EU (to spread propaganda), they will withdraw the US from NATO- which will prompt wars or takeover either way and weakens Germany, who is entering an election since their government couldn't agree on Ukraine budget.
Also speculation, but please do your own citizen journalism, are reports of widespread ballot rejection, especially for signatures. There are articles claiming already that it is because GenZ does not know cursive - except the signature simply must match your driver's license. It's not a cursive writing test. Avocado toast but with gen z voting fraud. We do not yet have the ballot rejection rates but typically they are around 1% to 1.5%.

Crypto is how right wing conservatism got funded here. It's why it took off- it was basically UBI for those men, funded by foreign intelligence for this purpose along with other uses for crypto like dark money, drugs, trafficking, etc. The least informed people we knew were investing in crypto when it was starting, mining bitcoins, couldn't tell you what a stock is yet making bank in crypto trading. Crypto trading, especially memecoins, appears to be an obvious scam to most because it's the stock market without ownership. So why were these 4chan pedophiles and nazis doing so well? Because it was just meant to give them money the whole time. And crypto is great for transferring money internationally from shady organizations to shady people.
The formula is using memecoins which are named with far right catchphrases to give money to far right extremist groups to fund them. The entire meme propaganda campaign, memes, and memecoin names are coordinated so the nazis are attracted to memecoins meant for them but outsiders won't know which are real. Once the government is taken over, they can force their memecoin as the national currency and then rug pull, which is also what Musk is likely going to do to Tesla at the same time into maybe DOGE. The entire point is to bankrupt America for Putin and his cartoon villain cohorts.
"Musk's fear over the U.S.'s spiraling $35 trillion debt pile comes as the bitcoin price has surged—outpaced by the price of the meme-based bitcoin rival dogecoin that's boomed thanks to Musk's backing of the Department Of Government Efficiency, nicknamed Doge."
He doesn't have fear about the debt that Trump added on. He's trying to attack us financially and will use this to justify collapsing Tesla stock.
If you're in Germany, take note. They are coming for you next, your election is soon.

Joe Rogan says Elon had data for election results on his phone 4 hours before official counts

" [Melania, naked] lying on a blue carpet with the U.S. seal, as though the editors of lthe men’s magazine knew something in advance about the future of their model."
They are just confirming she’s their asset.

In the first minute:
"Your votes are rigged. We can win New Mexico."
"Too Big to Rig"
"If you can watch your vote counter, if we can bring God down from heaven (he's referencing Starlink), we can win this, win California, win a lot of states."
“If [Trump] loses, I’m f*cked… How long do you think my prison sentence is going to be?”
Why does Elon think he would go to prison though? For what crime?

Trump:"Our little secret is having a big impact"
If Trump was so sure the election was rigged and they were going to turnover every state including California, then why hasn't he asked for a recount in all the states with representatives that didn't get elected that he thought would be? Shouldn't he be suing for recounts? He did it last time. Why doesn't he want an investigation this time?
Trump is a Russian asset working for Putin
Wanna buy? Comes in budle with russian "national treasure" - Putin. But it's only for self-pickup from bunker.
Journalist Michael Wolff leaked audio on the above podcast of Epatein saying how well he knew Trump, even during Trump's presidency. There's no evidence to support that Epstein was owned by Russia, but that Trump was so indiscriminate with him shows that he was probably indiscriminate in Russia and/or with Russian agents as well.
Imo it's possible Epstein tried to leverage a pardon from Trump for not spilling the beans and he got House of Cards'd

"we are now winning in Michigan, Arizona, Nevada and Alaska, which would result in us carrying at least 315 electoral votes. But that, but it's much easier doing what the networks did or whoever called it, because there was no other path. There was no other path to victory. We also have won the popular vote, that was great"
"the number of victories in the Senate was absolutely incredible and we did tele-rallies, we did tele-rallies with each one of them, and sometimes we did two or three for, and it was amazing to look at all of those victories. Nobody expected that. Nobody."
"And I want to thank Mike Johnson, I think he's doing a terrific job. Terrific job.." (Mike Johnson is who he said he has a little secret with and is Speaker of the house, and the house will decide, if Trump is found to have committed election fraud, if he should still be president).
"Oh, let me tell you, we have a new star. A star is born, Elon. No, he is. Now he's an amazing guy. We were sitting together tonight. You know, he spent two weeks in Philadelphia and different parts of Pennsylvania campaigning. You know, he sent the rocket up two weeks ago and I saw that rocket and I saw it coming down. I saw it. It was when it left. It was beautiful, shiny white. When it came down, it didn't look so pretty. It was going 10,000 miles an hour and it was burning like hell. I said, 'What happened to your paint job?' He said, 'We've never made a paint that could withstand that kind of heat.' And, but I saw it come down and turn around. And it was, you know, it's like 22 stories still, by the way, it looks a little smaller than that, but it's big. And it came down and down and you saw that fire burning and. And I'm saying only Elon could do this. It must be an Elon." (he means Elon stole the election with Starlink and he loves them now)
"And you know, when we had the tragic Hurricane Helene. And it hit it, particularly it hit North Carolina. They were really devastated. The water. This was big water. As big as we've ever seen, water hurricane. It built lakes out of nothing, fields became lakes. And the danger was unbelievable. And the people from North Carolina came to me and they said, 'Would it be possible at all possible for you to speak to Elon Musk, we need Starlink.' I said, 'What's Starlink?' It's a form of communication. So I called Elon. And I'll tell you what he had, and it was very dangerous. People would die. They had no communication. All the wires were down. I called Elon Musk. I said, 'Elon, you have something called Starlink. Is that right?' 'Yes, I do.' 'What the hell is it?' He said, 'It's a communication system that's very good.' I said, 'Elon, they need it really, really badly in North Carolina.' He got that there so fast. It was incredible."
"And we also have a man, Dana White, who has done some job. He's a tough guy." (Dana was Joe Rogans source about Elon's app)
Dana White: " I want to thank the boys Adin Ross, Theo Von, Bussin' with the Boys. And last but not least, the mighty and powerful Joe Rogan. And thank you, America. Thank you. Have a good night."
Trump: "We have more liquid gold, oil and gas. We have more liquid gold than any country in the world. More than Saudi Arabia. We have more than Russia."
"They said, 'He will start a war.' I'm not going to start a war. I'm going to stop wars. But this is also a massive victory for democracy and for freedom. Together, we're going to unlock America's glorious destiny. We're going to achieve the most incredible future for our people."
"Yesterday, as I stood at my last stop on the campaign trail, I'll never be doing a rally again, can you believe it? I think we've done 900 rallies approximately from. Can you imagine? 900, 901 or something. A lot of rallies. And it was sad. Everybody was sad. Many people. I said, 'This is our last rally,' but now we're going on to something that's far more important because the rallies were used for us to put, be put in this position where we can really help our country.
I believe this is a free YT link for the full Active Measures doc but I haven't watch it through fully to verify
